    INFLUENCE OF SUPPLEMENTARY DIETS WITH VARYING EFFICIENCY OF MICROBIAL BIOMASS SYNTHESIS ON FEED INTAKE AND NITROGEN METABOLISM IN CROSSBRED DAIRY HEIFERS
    (Karnataka Veterinary Animal And Fisheries Sciences University, Bidar, 2006) ANUP KUMAR, P.K
    Livestock is an important segment of agricultural sector in India and is kept mainly by the small landholders and the landless people that constitute major bulk of the rural population. In India as well as in most of the developing countries cereal and millet crop residues are the major feed sources for dairy cattle. These crop residues are low in nitrogen as well as energy content. The high fibre and lignin content in these crop residues makes their intake and digestibility low.

    EFFECT OF FEEDING MORINGA OLEIFERA AT DIFFERENT LEVELS ON GROWTH AND PERFORMANCE OF BROILER RABBITS
    (Karnataka Veterinary Animal And Fisheries Sciences University, Bidar, 2006) N.C. SIDDESWARA
    Livestock is an important component of IndiaĆ¢ s economy in terms of Income, Employment Generation, and Nutritional security, equity and foreign exchange earnings. In India, 69 per cent of the population lives in rural areas with agriculture being their main occupation. Of the total households in rural areas 73 per cent own livestock, notably the majority of livestock population is reared by landless laborers, migratory tribal, small and marginal farmers. The income from livestock production accounts for 15 to 40 per cent of total farm household income in different agro-climatic regions in India (Ranjhan, 1999). The total value of current output of livestock is about nine per cent of IndiaĆ¢ s GDP at constant price and about 30.3 per cent of the value of total agricultural output (Mathialagan, 2005).

    EFFECT OF DIFFERENT LEVELS OF ENERGY INTAKE ON MILK YIELD AND SOLIDS-NOT-FAT CONTENT IN CROSSBRED DAIRY COWS
    (Karnataka Veterinary Animal And Fisheries Sciences University, Bidar, 2008) MRUDHULA S. DATHAN
    India is the highest milk producing country in the world (91.94 million tons of milk per annum) with a share of 14 per cent of world milk production (Dairy India, 2007). Milk, providing a share of 18 per cent in gross value of agricultural sector, has emerged as the single largest agricultural commodity produced in India. The livestock sector by contributing milk production plays a vital role in fulfilling animal protein requirement of human population. Around 63 per cent of available animal protein in Indian diet (lOg/capita/day) comes from milk alone (Pandey et al., 2006). A small quantity of milk can provide more amounts of nutrients, protein and calories to the human beings than that of vegetables and cereals in the diet. Therefore it is necessary to increase the protein content of milk from human nutrition point of view.
